Description

Giant Allium (Allium giganteum) is perhaps the tallest of the ornamental onions at 3-4'. A giant purple globe adorns each leafless stalk. The spectacular show lasts a couple weeks with the hopes of no thunderstorms. Allow the foliage to grow and die back naturally as with any perennial bulbs. And as with all alliums, these are completely rabbit proof.
